- Association Peach growth responses after cold treatment varied with embryo maturity.
- Observation Root growth of 83-day embryos exceeded all other maturity stages.
- Observation The 83-day stage had maximum seedling survival and vigor.
- Observation Initial shoot growth was greatest at 91 and 107 days.
- Observation All shoots formed rosettes, with some later expansion or axillary development.
- Association Early shoot development correlated strongly with auxin concentration.
- Association Root growth responses appeared correlated with a promoter-inhibitor balance.
- Observation Embryo extracts suggested three growth promoters, strongest at Rf 0.70.
- Observation Two growth inhibitors were present in embryo tissue at Rf 0.27 and 0.96.
- Association The inhibitor at Rf 0.27 declined as embryo maturity increased.
